LoneStar Comic Con is held in Schertz, TX, every year. With tons of voice actors, cosplay guests and HBO actors, LoneStar is always a success.

They will also have appearances by Betsy Rue, Rachel Sterling and Andy Kuhn. Cosplay groups will include the Syrins, and the 501st Legion. So make sure to stop by the Schertz Civic center if you’re in the area! Looks like a blast

This years line up includes: Tim Seeley, Joe Staton, Dan Davis, Phoenix Kasai, and so much more! So make sure to check out GCCC if you’re in Ohio!
Strong or Weak for the Week!
Last Friday I showed you three of this weeks new video game releases. Those were: Gears of War: Judgement, Hyperdimension Neptunia V, as well as The Croods: Prehistoric Party. Gears of War and Hyperdimension were both given some strong reviews, and The Croods fell a little short. You can see the full article in my Strong or Weak for the Week article from Friday. If you have any comments about the games, or you picked one up and know first hand how great, or bad, it is, please comment!
